: I have never weighed it, but it is longer than but about the same weight as
: a Zuiko 300mm f4.5.  I think I payed about $700 for it new, but I am sure
: you can find it used for a fraction of that.  Also, it may be discontinued,

This Tokina is a 80-200mm lens, it weighs 1090g., and unfortunately the manual
focus version is discontinued - the AF version still exists as ATX-PRO. If an
OM-mounted version of this lens ever crosses your path, it should be acquired
immediately ;) The lens has a nice bonus: the Olympus 1.4xA fits.
